Abstract

The Webocracy project aims to empower citizens with innovative communication, access and polling system, supporting increased participation in democratic processes. One of the main project goals is to develop an open source web-based system called Webocrat as a multi-channel communication platform supporting e-government and e-democracy applications. Some of the Webocrat modules were tested in first trial of our two pilot applications, one of them running in Wolverhampton, UK and the other one in Kosice, Slovakia. Currently, whole integrated Webocrat system is being tested within the second trials.
